Hidden charts (objects) - how they work?

Anonymous — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hi,

I have QV screen which contains various buttons and charts. To make this simple, let’s say there are three buttons and three

corresponding line charts. Example: button1 -> chart1, button2 -> chart2 and etc. When this QV app is run (or initially loaded), the

screen only shows the three buttons at the top with chart1 visible below it. When button2 is clicked, chart2 is displayed with chart1

disappeared or hidden and chart2 occupies the same exact coordinates (screen area) as chart1.

When I right click on button2 -> Properties -> Action tab, I only see a variable being set and don’t see how Chart2 is being activated

and make Chart1 hidden.

Can someone provide some clues or point me to the right screen to check the code?

Thank you.

On the layout tab of the chart properties is a section called Show

I would look there to see what the Conditional is. I am betting that the conditional is referencing your variable.

Hi, Sydney,

In Chart Properties>Layout>Option Conditional you can set the variable value that must show the chart.

You can set the variable using the Action Tab. And you need to put the variable into the Layout tab of the Chart -> Show (Conditional )display.

Sheet Properties -> Objects -> Select the chart object and put your variable value into the Conditional display
